Chapter 128 Underground Fire Veins, Fire Scale Beast

Seeing Chen Baocai shouting in panic, Chen Qingyun raised his eyebrows.

When building a weapon-refining workshop, consider the safety of mortals. Whether it is building a furnace or modifying the fire control formation, safety must be given priority.

As long as you are not careless, there is basically no danger.

But how can industrial refining be 100% safe?

"Don't panic, I'll go take a look."

Chen Qingyun straightened his expression, used his light body technique, and turned into a stream of wind that drifted past Chen Baocai.

When I arrived at the weapon refining workshop, I found that all three production lines had stopped, and more than a dozen Chen family members were gathered together, hiding from something.

Chen Baocai from behind quickly followed.

Chen Qingyun took the lead in counting the number of people and found that there were quite a few people standing there safely, and then his expression softened.

"Master Immortal!"

"Master Immortal is here!"

Seeing Chen Qingyun appear, all the Chen family members greeted him one after another, and their nervous and flustered expressions became much relieved.

Chen Qingyun nodded calmly and looked around the weapon refining workshop.

He soon discovered that at some point, two flames burst out from the floor of the workshop.

The flame was bright yellow, about two meters in size, burning and beating slowly as if it were alive.

Even from a few meters away, you can feel the heat.

"Earthfire."

Having been exposed to the fire here for many years, Chen Qingyun recognized the origin of the two flames at a glance, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

This is obviously the earth fire he used to refine weapons. Why are there two groups coming out here?

"Chen Baocai."

When he was confused, Chen Qingyun called out and looked at Chen Baocai on one side.

"The little one is here."

Chen Baocai looked respectful.

Chen Qingyun raised his chin lightly, pointed at the two balls of ground fire, and asked.

"Tell me when this fire appeared and what happened?"

"Reporting to Master Immortal, I was also shocked."

Chen Baocai wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"We were busy producing, but suddenly we felt the temperature under our feet rising a lot. The younger one thought there was something wrong with Meiyu's control of the fire control formation."

"The little one was about to ask, but as soon as he took a step, the fire suddenly came out from underneath, and almost ignited the little one..."

Chen Baocai was still frightened and explained the matter briefly.

"Let me tell you, no wonder I always feel hotter than before when I work. It turns out there are two extra balls of fire."

Several Chen family members around did not dare to interrupt, but nodded from time to time, agreeing with Chen Baocai's story.

After hearing this, Chen Qingyun looked thoughtful.

The appearance of these two earthly fires showed that this matter was definitely not simple.

When Zhenhai Island was first discovered, there was an underground fire on the island.

For this reason, the family once explored the source of this underground fire, but found nothing in the end.

Later, they simply used local materials to build an underground fire room for refining magic weapons.

Now that two more earth fires have appeared, Chen Qingyun can be sure that there must be something in the ground under his feet.

There may be a vein of fire.

Earth fire is not born for no reason.

Thinking of this, Chen Qingyun glanced at everyone.

"I already know about this."

"You guys will have a rest today. I will let you know when work will start."

The emergence of the earth fire disrupted production, so the tribe could only rest for a while and explore the reasons for the emergence of the earth fire.

"Production suspended."

After hearing Chen Qingyun's instructions, Chen Baocai looked stunned.

"Master Immortal, this..."

The rest of the tribe also looked at each other in disbelief, wondering if the weapon-refining workshop was going to cease production?

Why did such a good job disappear within a month?

Sensing the disappointment on everyone's faces, Chen Qingyun had been doing things for many years in his previous life, but he still couldn't guess what they were thinking.

He said loudly: "During the break, the salary will continue to be paid."

Upon hearing Chen Qingyun's words, the disappointment on the faces of all the mortals was immediately wiped away.

"I will obey the instructions of Master Immortal!"

Chen Baocai bowed excitedly and responded.

After Chen Baocai and others left, Chen Qingyun looked around the two balls of earth fire.

The size of the fire control formation is one hundred and fifty square meters.

The locations where the two balls of earth fire appeared were within the scope of the fire control formation, interfering with the refining production of the weapon refining workshop.

This caused the hematite in two furnaces to evaporate due to the high temperature and failure to fuse in time, turning it into waste.

Chen Qingyun didn't care about his heartache, and cast two magic barriers to temporarily seal the two ground fires, leaving only a small gap for air to circulate.

The two earth fires will be dealt with later. What we need to do now is to explore the ground beneath our feet.

Chen Qingyun wiped his palm across the storage bag, and when he opened his palm again, a mini figure appeared in his palm.

"Go ahead."

Wu Xing jumped down, used the Earth Escape Technique, and escaped under one of the Earth Fires.

The ground fire spread all the way down, and the surrounding soil and rocks had become hot due to the burning of the ground fire.

This ground fire directly burned out a deep flame channel.

The Earth Puppet followed this flame passage down and traveled a distance of more than two thousand feet. A flame vein appeared in front of him, and a cave-like landscape environment appeared around it.

"There is indeed a vein of fire underground on this island."

Seeing this fire vein and the empty scene around it, it was indeed in line with his guess, and Chen Qingyun's eyes lit up.

At this time, it seemed as if he had come to the underground world.

He finally figured out why the family had not explored this underground fire vein before.

"This fire vein goes deep into the underground of the Spirit Island, and the Qi-refining cultivators have no divine consciousness, so how can they explore this depth."

"The maximum exploration distance of the fifth sister's earth puppet is also a hundred feet."

"No wonder neither the family cultivators nor the fifth sister have explored the source of this underground fire and discovered this underground fire spirit vein."

"It's just that this place is too far from the surface, a full two thousand feet away."

Continuing to control the five elements, exploring around this flame landform, the area here has reached more than three thousand square meters.

Chen Qingyun also soon discovered that this place is full of rich fire elements, and the spiritual energy level has reached the first-level lower level.

These are all fire attribute spiritual energy. If it is practiced by fire attribute cultivators, it will achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Under such a rich fire element, there is also spiritual energy. After thousands of years of accumulation, it will inevitably attract and even give birth to some creatures.

After quietly exploring for a while, this conjecture was soon verified.

Chen Qingyun saw a flame creature here.

Fire Scale Beast.

This is a first-level inferior monster beast born in the earth fire spirit vein. It likes to live in groups and feeds on the power of fire.

They are the size of wild wolves, and the scales on their bodies are like balls of fire, hence their name. They can spray fire poison from their mouths and release toxic smoke.

To deal with this kind of monster beast, it is best to prepare detoxification pills and take protective measures.

The number of Fire Scale Beasts here has reached 26, and their strength is extremely unusual. More than half of them have reached the late stage of Qi Refining.

Among the Fire Scale Beasts, Chen Qingyun noticed the largest one.

This Fire Scale Beast is about twice as large as other members of the same clan, and its strength has reached the second-level inferior, which is equivalent to the initial stage of foundation building.

How could this low-grade Fire Scale Beast grow to the late stage of Qi Refining, and one of them is at the Foundation Establishment stage?

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal.

Chen Qingyun continued to explore for a while, and soon found an unexpected and surprising result.
